Earthy mushrooms, rich umami, and a kick of chili. This Sichuan classic is brimming with shiitake and wild porcini mushrooms, bringing bold, savory flavor and a satisfyingly chunky texture to your table. A spoonful turns rice, vegetables, or noodles into something worth lingering over.
Why We Love It
There’s more to this sauce than heat. Shiitake and wild porcini bring umami—that deeply savory flavor that gives a dish depth—with plenty of mushroom pieces to enjoy. It’s a delicious pantry staple for adding both flavor and texture to simple meals, without an elaborate recipe.
How to Enjoy
Toss with warm noodles, spoon over steamed rice and tofu, or serve alongside dumplings. Try a dollop on roasted vegetables or stir it into sautéed greens just before serving. Start with a small spoonful and add more to suit your taste.
